Hello! I just bought the alienware m16 r2 , and on the first turn on and setup it got very hot from below and i felt it also on the Keyboard. Althought i was doing nothing on it.. it was just turned on... what do you think???? Personally i think its bad no? Please help!!
It depends on how hot. Gaming laptops output a lot of heat because they have powerful components inside. If the temperatures are very high when doing nothing (idling) then you can return/swap it for a another one or talk to AW support. Without any numbers to quantify it's very hard to qualify "very hot".
@Smart_boy2001 There is no temperature that is considered dangerous. But they can be so warm that it's hot to the touch and not comfortable for gaming or typing. From a few years ago the temps could be in the 40Cs range. That is too hot for comfort for extended periods of time.
Hey, so far are you liking the m16 r2 more or the Lenovo Pro 7? I ended up buying both but will return one of them after I get some time to compare. I went with the m16 in a 4070 and the Lenovo in a 4080 at $800 more( CAD). I would like the most future proofing and ability to game at 1440p/4k at 60fps+ but I also really value design, battery and lower temps/ fan noise. Thanks!
@wc8561 If you love gaming and nice displays and graphics/visuals, keep the 4080 Legion Pro 7. The m16 has a poorer display by comparison and the 4080 can be upwards of 50% more performance. And not just in games but content creation too (if you're into that).
@@techknowlux my r2 came today and gaming has been great except the fans are super loud ! Any chance the Lenovo is quieter ? Though I’m in doubt as it’s running a 4080 …
@@wc8561Iow fan noise is also important to me as well! Suprised to hear that the fan noise is that loud with the m16 r2 as the original m16/x16 were some of the quietest laptops when gaming in silent and balanced mode. Are the r2 fans loud when gaming in balanced mode as well?

I see the cpu thermals going up to 110c?? Isn't that no good?
ultra 7 and ultra 9 are designed to go up to 110

how much temperature is the surface to be dangerous ?
